Ok guys
Theres always a first time.
Only last week I was saying good things
about the Prosistel heavy-duty rotator.
Today we had strong winds peaking
100 Km/H, the crank-up tower was only
15 m. high (theres a 3 el. KLM 40m. beam
and a small WARC beam up there), when I
arrived home from work I noticed the antennas
were rotating free with the wind.
The Hex-screws connecting both parts of the rotator
had unscrewed aparently breaking everything inside
this Prosistel rotator.
I just hope the warranty is still valid as I have this
rotator for less than a year.
Next time I will reinforce the fixing of this screws somehow.
(I hate when this happens in a moment like this,
in the eve of VK9ML, Hi!)
